Yes. I think anyone who reads this knows who and what I'm talking about. If Zero really had grown up and decided to apologize, I wouldn't accept it because he was the one who decided to act like a major immature jackass when I tried.
Here's the thing. Apologies mean nothing unless the person doing so truly means it. They have to acknowledge that you were either right, or that your feelings were hurt, or that you were wronged. They can't just be apologizing because it'll put their mind at ease. It's a two-way thing; it can't be one-sided.
And sometimes, apologies occur too late to really make any amends.
